Requirements for NetApp Filers

Your environment must meet the following requirements:

•

Foglight for Storage Management requires an account with the appropriate defined role access capabilities to enable DataONTAP® API.

•

For supported versions of DATA ONTAP and Cluster Mode (C-Mode), see Collection Target Support Matrix.

•

For general access, the following permissions are required for the accounted used for monitoring:

•

login-http-admin - allows connection to the NetApp storage via HTTP.

•

system-api-list - allows querying for the list of available API methods available

•

security-api-vfiler - allows the execution of API commands to retrieve vFiler unit information.

•

"api-*" - allows the use of NetApp API calls for data collection

•

For limited access, different monitoring roles will need to be created depending on the NetApp system to which you are connecting. For information on how to create a read-only user to monitor a storage system in OnCommand System Manager, OnCommand Unified Manager or Performance Advisor, refer to your NetApp documentation. Foglight for Storage Management will never request or require write access to any filer components or services.

•

Foglight for Storage Management may execute some or all of the following calls when collecting data. Not all calls are available on all versions of Data ONTAP.

Table 10. List of calls
aggr-get-iter	lun-get-iter	qtree-list
aggr-list-info	lun-get-occupied-size	quota-report

In 7-Mode, this command line can be used to create a role with only the limited permissions required for monitoring.

useradmin role add vfs_collector -a login-http-admin,api-system-get-version,api-system-get-info,api-system-get-ontapi-version,api-aggr-list-info,api-volume-list-info,api-volume-get-root-name,api-volume-options-list-info,api-qtree-list,api-quota-report,api-disk-list-info,api-cifs-share-list-iter-start,api-cifs-share-list-iter-next,api-cifs-share-list-iter-end,api-nfs-exportfs-list-rules,api-nfs-exportfs-list-rules-2,api-snapshot-delta-info,api-snapshot-get-reserve,api-snapshot-list-info,api-lun-map-list-info,api-lun-list-info,api-lun-get-occupied-size,api-lun-get-space-reservation-info,api-lun-get-serial-number,api-iscsi-node-get-name,api-fcp-node-get-name,api-fcp-adapter-list-info,api-portset-list-info,api-snmp-get,api-snmp-get-next,api-vfiler-list-info,api-perf-object-get-*,api-perf-object-counter-list-info,security-api-vfiler,api-perf-object-instance-list-info,api-system-api-list

Once the role is created, it must be associated with a group, and the group associated with a user. The NetApp documentation covers this in more detail: https://library.netapp.com/ecmdocs/ECMP1155684/html/GUID-20BAA16F-7411-45F1-84E8-4C6761D9B539.html

In cluster mode, the newer security login commands can be used to create a role with the appropriate permissions.

It is possible to create a read-only role and assign it to an account without specifically listing the commands required. This is done by first creating the role with the correct access permissions, and then creating a new user account associated with that role.

To create the rule, the following command is used:

security login role create -role vfs_collector -cmddirname DEFAULT -access readonly

This role will have read-only access to the default set of NetApp commands. Then a user can be created and associated with this role:

security login create -username vtest -application ontapi -authmethod password -role vfs_collector

If more fine-grained control over the permissions assigned is required, then the complete list of commands required will need to be granted individually. This is done by allowing read-only access to the command associated with each API call that the Foglight for Storage Management agent is required to make. The NetApp documentation should be consulted for more details.

The mapping of API permissions to NetApp commands is:

Table 11. Mapping of API permissions to NetApp commands
API Name	Command Line Permission
api-aggr-get-iter, api-aggr-status-get-iter	storage aggregate show
api-aggr-space-get-iter	storage aggregate show-space
api-cifs-share-get-iter	vserver cifs share show
api-cluster-identity-get	cluster show
api-disk-list-info	storage disk show
api-fcp-adapter-get-iter	network fcp adapter show
api-fcp-interface-get-iter	vserver fcp interface show
api-fcp-port-name-get-iter	vserver fcp wwpn-alias show
api-iscsi-service-get-iter	vserver iscsi show
api-lun-get-iter	lun show
api-lun-map-get-iter	lun mapped show
api-net-interface-get-iter	network interface show
api-nfs-service-get-iter	vserver nfs show, vserver nfs status
api-perf-object-counter-list-info	statistics catalog counter show
api-perf-object-get*	statistics show
api-perf-object-instance-list-info-iter	statistics catalog instance show
api-portset-get-iter	lun portset show
api-qtree-list-iter	volume qtree show
api-quota-report-iter	volume quota report
api-snapshot-*	volume snapshot show, volume snapshot policy show
api-storage-disk-get-iter	storage disk show
api-system-get-node-info-iter	system node image show
api-system-get-version	version
api-volume-get-iter	volume show
api-vserver-get-iter	vserver show
igroup-get-iter	lun igroup show

A new role should be created:

security login role create -role vfs_collector -cmddirname "security login role show-ontapi" -access readonly

Each of the command line permissions will need to be assigned to the selected role in the following manner:

security login role create -role vfs_collector -cmddirname "storage aggregate show" -access readonly

Then a user created and associated with that role:

security login create -role vfs_collector -username vtest -application ontapi -authmethod password
